The Syria Files

Thursday 5 July 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing the Syria Files – more than two million emails from Syrian political figures, ministries and associated companies, dating from August 2006 to March 2012. This extraordinary data set derives from 680 Syria-related entities or domain names, including those of the Ministries of Presidential Affairs, Foreign Affairs, Finance, Information, Transport and Culture. At this time Syria is undergoing a violent internal conflict that has killed between 6,000 and 15,000 people in the last 18 months. The Syria Files shine a light on the inner workings of the Syrian government and economy, but they also reveal how the West and Western companies say one thing and do another.

I did not see any new inventory on site nor was it mentioned in the daily reports - I did discuss same with the Engineers, May and Kassam - as mentioned, Kassam said that he would follow same and inform asap.

Regarding Point 1 – Abdullah collected the boxes from our offices on the 26th of April. He packed them up and labelled them and was then going directly to the airport to send them to Lattakia. In total there were three big cardboard boxes and the final
tool which I think was a small spade or fork, books, grass improving stuff, 2 balls of string, stationery, gloves and daisy grubbers.

Did none of this arrive? In which case Abdullah will need to find out what happened to the parcels as he must have the paperwork.
